Get To Know Dr. Luke Aiura

Dr. Luke Aiura took the road less traveled into dentistry - but wouldn’t have it any other way. After graduating from Northwestern University with a degree in history, he taught English in Japan for several years. During this time, he met an inspiring doctor who showed him the way that healthcare speaks the universal language of humanity. He knew he wanted to be a part of this tradition - and dentistry offered a unique, hands-on profession that blends analytical skills with his passion for creativity and genuine interpersonal connection.

Upon returning from Japan, Dr. Aiura enrolled in the post-baccalaureate program at Loyola University Chicago and went on to earn his D.D.S. at the University of Michigan School of Dentistry.  During his residency at the South Texas Veterans Health Care System, Dr. Aiura expanded his clinical skills - which included extensive training in oral surgery, implant dentistry, full-mouth rehabilitation, and IV anesthesia. Dr. Aiura is committed to providing the highest level of comprehensive, compassionate, and evidence-based dental care back in his hometown of Chicago. He approaches every patient interaction with active listening and attention to detail - and takes special care to understand and treat patients with dental anxiety.

Outside the office, Dr. Aiura loves live music of all kinds, playing guitar (probably too loudly), and exploring Chicago on his bike - as well as spending time with his family and little niece, Kit-Kat.

Get To Know Dr. RJ Villa

Growing up in a family of physicians, Dr. RJ Villa was meant for healthcare; once he discovered the field of dentistry, he never looked back. To start his journey, Dr. Villa attended the University of Michigan for his undergraduate degree in Brain Behavior and Cognitive Science. From there, he attended Marquette University School of Dentistry and completed a one-year Fellowship after graduation with an emphasis on surgery. Growing up in the Northwest Suburbs, it was always his dream to live in Chicago because it provides diverse opportunities to invest in himself personally and professionally.  Through hundreds of hours of continuing education, Dr. Villa excels in the most intricate dental procedures and has a palpable passion for what he does.

Dr. Villa loves the ability to provide true comprehensive dentistry with complete control from start to finish. From cosmetics and root canals to implants and surgeries, he is a one stop shop! Dr. Villa places an emphasis on education, compassion, and trust because he understands we have all had different experiences that make us who we are. He always strives to be open minded and transparent - making your comfort a priority. As one of the most patient men on the planet, Dr. Villa will take time to understand you so you can feel most confident in your plan of care. His goal is to be your friend who’s a dentist where you can ask him any question and know he will be accessible in times of need. Dr. Villa is solution driven, and believes that if better is possible, good is not enough.

Dr. Villa loves spending time with his family and going for walks around downtown Chicago with his wife and their dog, Mae West, in search of the best new restaurants. He enjoys live music, and he has recently picked up the saxophone. Ping pong is one of Dr. Villa’s favorite pastimes and he will play for hours if you let him. He is excited to meet you and provide the best dental care in Chicago!
